We’re already fans of the MT-4S (see our review in the November 2014 issue), but in “40th Anniversary” mode it’s especially attractive. In addition to the standard MT-4S good stuff (see long list below), the anniversary model includes a custom steering wheel, “piano black” finish, RX-472 SSL receiver plus a special-edition RX-471 receiver, and a [...]

Lights, camera, RC action! (Or snowboarding or BMX or surfing or whatever.) Hitec has jumped into the action-cam scene with two new units “designed to capture your world in high definition precision.” The MD10 and S60 are both WiFi-enabled, shoot 1080p and have 4X digital zoom capability, and the S60 gets an LCD display back.

He started with an Axial Wraith chassis kit which he cut apart and back-halved. He used suspension links to create roll bars and dropped in an SCX center frame section. He also [...]

If you’d like to get Axial’s new “Spawn” look for your Wraith, you’re in luck: the body is now sold separately, and includes all the decals and masks you need to detail it out like below. You’ll have to pony up for the interior and driver’s helmet though, they’re sold separately. For more details, plus [...]
